Ability of extracellular proteinases of micromycetes Aspergillus flavipes, Aspergillus fumigatus, and Aspergillus sydowii to affect proteins of the human haemostatic system

Аннотация

The effect of extracellular proteinases of A. flavipes A17, A. fumigatus D1, and A. sydowii 1 on proteins of the human haemostasis system was studied. It was shown that A. fumigatus D1 proteinases are able to hydrolyze a wide range of chromogenic peptide substrates of specific human proteinases of the haemostatic system. Proteinases formed by A. flavipes A17 and A. sydowii 1 have a narrow specificity, mainly to thrombin and plasmin substrates. It was first shown that proteinase of A. flavipes A17 is capable to activate protein C and Factor X. Extracellular proteinase produced by A. sydowii 1 has greater fibrinolytic activity as compared with proteinases produced by A. flavipes A17 and A. fumigatus D1.
